And here we go again. Lol, yes it's a new chapter that is coming along for you people. I have to admit that for the first time, I had a very hard time with this chapter. It wasn't because I was running out of ideas, but mostly because I was unsure of the direction I wanted this chapter to take. There was so many ways this could go, and I didn't know which one to chose.

Anyways, on with the reviews.

rindualam; Awe, I know I should apologize, but I can't. I am a writer after all. I like the fact that I make you want more, I mean this is a good thing right? At least that means you will stick around, which is good :)

choccimuffin; You think so? Well, thank you very much! Really? You don't feel like you have to wait for a long time? Well, that's a relief, because I don't hear it too often! I'm glad it is not a long wait for you. I know, Bulma got a freaking rough life because of Frieza heh? Don't worry I'll eventually make it up to her lol ;)

PrincessxShawn; My favorite person! Lol, I was dying to have your review. One word; relief! Lol. Oh man, 3 reasons to hate me? What is this! lol Alright, #1, It is important that not knowing Frieza's plan is killing you! Lol, that's the whole purpose behind it. #2 Alright, I admit I deserve hate for that cliffhanger. I accept that one. #3 I don`t think I deserve to be hate for that one, because the story between them is not over yet, lol, when I'm done with those 3, THEN you can hate me lmao. NOOOOOOOW time for the love, lol. #1 I totally though the tail thing was cute too, that's why I had to write something involving their tails, lol. #2, I don't update that fast, lol. And don't worry about the editing! :) #3 You know me, I'm the queen of drama, remember! You have no idea how much I love your reviews, they make me smile so much :)

ToraNoKo123; I don't know, I mean Vegeta is a pretty stubborn one, you know. :P Lol, oh trust me, there is a lot more to come about Bulma and her parents. I can't say if an ass kicking or not will happen, but don't get your hopes down, lol. I mean, she still has to know what happened to her real parents right? Lol.

XxKuroyoxX; Lol, awe, it's okay don't worry about it, I'm just glad you're back! :) Lol, you will ? Kill me? I hope not! How would I ever finish this story if you did so? Lol, and please don't try anything to harsh, my body is already in a full aching mood *pretty please* lol.

Ikaru Sentinal; Well, Frieza doesn't know about the mark. In usual mating, (without a mark on the back like Bulma has) if you kill one, the other remains alive. So Frieza doesn't know about that, so yes, he could kill either one right now if he wanted too. But why would he want their child? But then again, why wouldn't he? What isn't it likely? Why is it likely? But, at least you are developing theories, and that's always nice :) Awe, Happy valentine's day to you too! :)

Ashley; No problem there hun! Well, Frieza will be getting his way at least for a while, this is all I can say for now. But obviously, he can't win right? Because, then that would suck. Lol. Yes, Vegeta would eventually pick up some hints, but will he realize it? I know, it was weird for me to write Goku/Kakarot being so different, but I personally found it some what entertaining to picture him differently.

Kao-Misao178; Lol, no unfortunately, it is not you. I do enjoy it a lot to end it to the worst place possible. I know it is quite mean for you guys, but it's entertaining for me, lol. You know, it's a little cliff hanger, but you know you still love me even though I do that :). Awee, I didn't mean to make you sad you know. I'll try for this chapter to not end so cruely. :)

RikkuKashi; Awe, I'm glad you like it. Yes, Nappa will have quite the big role in the next chapters since he became a spy. Lol, well, I'm not saying it won't happen, and I'm not saying it will, but it would be interesting for him to try to fight Vegeta, lol. No, unfortunately, they are not aware that Frieza bugged the whole ship once again. But, like you said, it does make things a lot more interesting, since he knows almost everything. Well, it will sort of blow in his face, but I can't tell how, because that would just be ruining the story for you guys right? LOL snatch the rug from his 3 claws feet? That made me laugh so hard! AhAH! But it will sort of happened. But the mental picture was hilarious. Don't worry I love your ranting, its quite nice to read it! :) I'm glad it ended your week good :)

earlschibiangel; Oh, you do? Well, if you want to share it with me though, you can still PM it to me, I'd like to hear what you think you've figured out. I wouldn't be surprised if you had though, because I don't know, like I said, I thought I was being very un subtle. Sorry about the mistakes. I posted the beta-read chapter now though, so it should be good now :)

korryne; Of course it's getting intense. Lol, and it will keep going, since Frieza is getting more and more his way. I mean, things will get hot. Really? You think I update fast? YAY! Lol, because I believe I am quite slow. I mean it's only once a week. AH! AH! I think that's a big question for everybody including Vegeta and Bulma, lol. You will find out though when they do it, lol. Actually, it is told what the mark is, and what it does in chapter 11 I believed, called The Beginning, everything is explained :)

Omnipotent Porunga; Woaw, what are you doing there? Is it just you went, or you doing some work there? AHAH! I missed your little dialogue. AHAH! I betcha that's what his tail would say, ahah. But I mean, ouch... like THAT TAIL, is very very long. That would be... interesting, lol. Alright, I need to get my mind out of the gutter, lol. geeze.

Chapter 20: Cruel Temptation

.

Vegeta tried to take a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself. He needed to put aside to fact that Bulma's blood smelled heavenly, and focus on what was happening. It was a saiyan smell he knew that much; this wasn't something that Frieza inserted into her since it was produced by her body. There had to be a logical explanation.

Another breeze of the smell hit Vegeta's voice. How in the world could she still be sleeping? This smell was driving him crazy, and it was hard to get his thoughts straight. There was one thing Vegeta knew for sure; the bleeding had something to do with him; it always had. Maybe, he should get away from her for a while. It would at least stop the bleeding, right?

Vegeta sighed heavily before trying to leave the bed. He couldn't. He turned his head to look at Bulma, and she was still peacefully sleeping. Vegeta raised his hand, before running it through his hair; how could she affect him, when she was sleeping? He couldn't resist the urge, and against his will, got closer to her.

This was a bad idea.

Bulma was even more tempting up close. Maybe he should have kept his distance with her after all. It was too late now, though. Vegeta lay down right beside her almost cuddling her. He needed to touch her. Vegeta approached his hand from her arm, and delicately, he ran the tip of his fingers down her arm. The touch sent shivers down his spine. Before Vegeta knew it, he was making his way to her neck. Vegeta licked his lips as he stared at her bare neck; at that exact spot, he would leave his mark on her.

He would mark her as his.

Vegeta's eyes never left Bulma's neck, as he got closer, and closer. His breathing was tickling Bulma's neck, as Vegeta felt his need grow stronger. Vegeta let the tip of his tongue escape his mouth, slightly licking Bulma's neck. The Prince couldn't help but bite his lips; Bulma was irresistible. Vegeta's mind was clouded by his desire, his head slightly spinning; why did he enjoy this feeling?

Unconsciously he slightly grinded his teeth against her skin.

And, snap.

Vegeta backed away, clearly surprised. Had he? Did he? His respiration was quite accelerated, and Vegeta took a few moments to calm himself down. Maybe his mind was playing tricks on him. That had to be it. Vegeta was almost afraid to take a glance at Bulma. Wait, afraid? That wasn't like him! Vegeta growled in annoyance, and scout over to Bulma, slightly. He looked down at her exposed neck, and he noticed it.

Vegeta had left a mark on her neck.

He had left a freaking mark.

He had initiated mating.

Vegeta was an idiot.

His breathing accelerated slightly at the view of the red mark on her neck. Bulma probably wouldn't know. She didn't know much about saiyans culture. If he didn't tell her, she would never know. Maybe she'd think she scratch herself or something. He sighed heavily; what in the world had pushed him to do such a thing. Vegeta raised his hand again, smelling his fingers.

He needed to talk to Nappa, now.

Since Nappa was older than him, maybe he would know what in the world was going on. Maybe he would recognize the smell. Vegeta got up from the bed, but not without stealing one more glance at Bulma. Vegeta was starting to think that she would be the end of him. Yet, the idea didn't seem so unpleasant.

The Prince sighed heavily before walking in direction of the door. He hoped for whoever's sake that there was nothing fishy with this smell dilemma. He wouldn't take one more of Frieza's scheme. Vegeta opened the door, silently closing it behind him. Hopefully Nappa was still in the training centre.

As Vegeta walked down the hall, he became very suspicious. It wasn't like him to get those strange feelings, but he couldn't shake off the sensation that something was off. Of course, he could only be extra paranoid considering everything that happened lately, but still. He always had a reason behind his suspicions. He sighed heavily; ever since that damn Bulma came into his life, he had been all over the place. Nothing was right anymore. Something was always always happening.

Of course, Bulma had brought her share of good things, or at least would. It was pretty entertaining to have her around; fights, yelling, and, well, not quite sex yet, but still. Vegeta smirked as he recalled all those times where they had been interrupted; they were cursed or something like that. They had to be.

"Vegeta?"

At the sound of his name, Vegeta turned around, only to find Nappa standing in front of him. The much taller saiyan looked quite nervous which was very unsual for him. Vegeta decided to brush it aside, for now. Without saying anything, Vegeta walked closer to Nappa, and once he was right in front of him, he brought his hand in front of Nappa's face. Without making any contact, Vegeta passed his fingers under Nappa's nose, giving him a smell of Bulma's blood.

Immediately, Nappa closed his eyes, and Vegeta could swear he slightly groaned. It was obvious that Nappa knew the smell. At least it meant it was saiyan, confirming what Vegeta thought. "You know this smell?" asked Vegeta as he pulled his hand away.

Nappa nodded. He was feeling somewhat nervous because he knew what Frieza had done to Bulma, and he knew Vegeta would come and ask him his questions. It was quite hard for Nappa to be on Frieza's side. He wasn't sure he could do it without betraying himself. "It's mating season." He said, almost with a smirk, trying to show his usual confidence.

Vegeta looked quite confused. "It's mating season?" What in the world was that big baka talking about? He had never heard of such a thing before.

Nappa knew exactly what mating season was. Himself had been caught and charmed by the lovely smells of a few ladies, but, since he was to be devoted to the prince, the king had always prevented him from getting a mate. "Females' smells change during mating season, to attract a mate."

"Why didn't you tell me about this?" asked Vegeta before crossing his arms in front of his chest.

Nappa sighed heavily; he wasn't a very good liar. "Well, I- We are on a ship. It's hard to tell how much time has gone by. I guess I forgot when mating season was eversince we stopped living on Vegeta-sei." Nappa started breathing a little easier when Vegeta looked like he was buying it.

Vegeta was actually lost in his thoughts. Mating season? Was this the reason behind his action? This was the reason why he had left a small mark on Bulma, letting everyone know he wanted to take her as his? This was why he had iniated mating? He growled. Apparently, every fucking thing was against him.

This did leave him with a problem. Nappa was mate-less too. It was obvious that Nappa reacted to Bulma's new smell, and this could cause some problems. He would be dangerous to leave Bulma walking around in such a state; who knew what a saiyan, especially one like Nappa, could do when his brain stopped working, and his desires were leading him. He would need to keep Bulma close to him until this would be over. That, or mate her.

"How long does it last?"

Nappa was taken a little by surprise. He had absolutely no idea how long Frieza's substances would affect Bulma's hormones. If he was caught in a lie by Vegeta, it would be bad. "A few months." At least that would give him sometimes. Surely Vegeta wouldn't resist his urge for so long.

Vegeta groaned. "A few months?" he asked in surprise. This was bad. He thought this was going to last a couple of days, maybe weeks. He would need to be strong.

"It depends." Said Nappa, trying to ease Vegeta's obvious anger state.

Vegeta rolled his eyes; like a couple of days would make a difference. Vegeta rubbed the side of his head with his index and thumb. "Get lost." He said to Nappa, before walking away from the taller saiyan.

He didn't have any more time to deal with Nappa, since he had bigger problems to deal with right now. Plus, he had left Bulma alone for long enough; he wanted to be there when she would awake. Also, he had to clean the blood on her back; no need to get her all worried for nothing right?

Vegeta was walking back to the room, and this time unlike before, he could smell her from the hall. This was bad. If he could smell her from this far, the smell would be intoxicating when close to her. Vegeta looked at the warriors walking past him; nobody else seemed affected by this. Vegeta guessed it was a saiyan thing. At least he wouldn't have to deal with anyone else but Nappa.

The Prince took a deep breath before pushing the door of their room opened. When he peaked inside, he noticed that Bulma was still sleeping. Perfect. He softly closed the door, being careful not to wake her up. As fast as he could, he went in the washroom, and grabbed a towel, and wet it. Vegeta walked over to the bed, taking short breaths. He put his hand on Bulma's hip, keeping her in place, and he gently wiped the blood away from her mark.

As Vegeta wipped the blood away, he worried again. Did this mating season crap affect Bulma too? Would she sense it? Would she want mating? Maybe he should have ask Nappa some more questions before sending him away like he had done. It would have been the smart thing to do. Well, it was too late now; he wasn't going to crawl back to Nappa after he sent him off. He had his pride after all. He would need do find an answer to his quesions by himself. It didn't bother him that much, since he didn't mind a horny Bulma. Vegeta smirked to himself at the thought.

Once Vegeta was done getting rid of the blood, he threw the ruined cloth into the garbage, and came back to Bulma's side. Vegeta didn't know if he should wake her up, since she was still sleeping. She had been sleeping for a while after all; what in the world had she done that she was so tired?

Vegeta was growing a little impatient, since this whole mating season thing was new, and confusing to him. He wanted answers, and more than that, he wanted to spend some quality time with Bulma. Vegeta went to his side, and wrapped his arms around Bulma's waist, pressing her back against his chest. His hands were under her shirt, feeling the smooth skin of her stomach. Once again, it hadn't been that long since he had touched her, yet it felt like forever to him. He was enjoying every touch, and every caress. Vegeta wanted to feel her skin against his, and those thoughts didn't help the desire he felt, and Bulma's smell wasn't helping either.

Bulma was still sleeping as Vegeta let his hand explore her upper body. He knew she probably wouldn't wake up yet; she felt safe in his presence, which was an advantagde for him. Maybe he could shake off that intense feeling before she wakes up, and play it off afterwards. If she didn't wake up, she wouldn't know right? Plus, Vegeta was pretty sure Bulma wouldn't mind his actions. She never had before.

Vegeta closed his eyes as the tip of his fingers felt the bottom of Bulma's breasts. He was craving to touch her. He knew his excitement was growing larger by the seconds. Vegeta started to caress Bulma's breast, softly, feeling her nipple harden under his touch. Damn. Why wasn't she awake by now? Vegeta growled in anticipation. This could be a lot more exciting if his actions were returned.

He could feel Bulma starting to move against him, and his growing erection, but she still remained in a slumber. Vegeta rolled his eyes; she was a stubborn one. If Bulma didn't want to wake up, then he would keep going... just a little more. Soon enough, Vegeta's adventurous hand was slowly going down Bulma's warm thigh. Her skin felt like a rush of heat through his hand. Vegeta sighed heavily; he needed this girl to be awake.

Vegeta removed his hands away from Bulma's body, even though he did miss the skin contact, and put them on her shoulders. He was about to shake her, to wake her up, but decided otherwise. Maybe she would be in a better mood if he woke her up in a better way. Vegeta grabbed her Bulma's face with his hands, and softly kiss her jaw line. Then, he kissed her cheek, before stealing a quick kiss from her soft, moist lips. It was harder then he had expected to pull away.

Bulma opened her tired eyes with difficulty. She blinked a few times, before opening them fully. Bulma had been awaken from her sleep by a sweet, and soft touch, yet she couldn't figure out what it had been. When she noticed Vegeta semi on top of her, staring at her, she gasped slightly. Vegeta had woke her up? Was something wrong? Had he simply kissed her?

Vegeta chuckled at her reaction. "You sure are lazy."

Bulma felt like rolling her eyes; this was the Vegeta she knew. "How long have I been out?" she asked, clearly ignoring his mean comment. She would simply deal with him later.

Vegeta shrugged his shoulders. "A long time. I had the time to go training for hours, and your ass was still on this bed when I came back." Vegeta knew how much it would annoy her the way he was picking on her; she was never in the greatest mood after waking up. He though, was getting a kick out of this.

Bulma sighed heavily. "How about being nice for a change?" She asked before playfully punching him on the arm. She knew Vegeta was trying to get at her, and she wasn't about to let him win.

Vegeta shook his head; now wasn't the time to have his usual argument with Bulma; he needed to find some answers to his questions without raising her suspicion about the whole mating season crap. "How do you feel?" asked Vegeta, completely ignoring her question.

Bulma was taken by surprise by his question since she didn't expect Vegeta to care how she felt. Wait, he wasn't suppose to care. It wasn't like him to ask such a thing. Maybe he was sick. Without thinking, Bulma raised her hand, and pressed it against Vegeta's forehead. How weird; his forehead didn't feel hot. Vegeta rolled his eyes; what in the world was up with her this time? "What are you doing?" he hissed.

The blue saiyan shook her head. "I thought you had a fever. I mean, you did ask me how I felt."

Vegeta raised his arms, and pushed her hand away. "I'm fine." She was acting like a worried mother. Not that he would know how a mother should be acting. His mother hadn't really been one. "Just tell m how you feel." he asked once again.

Bulma shrugged her shoulders. Was something wrong with her? Did something happen that she was unaware of? She couldn't think of another explanation. "I feel perfectly fine."

"No unsual feelings?"

Alright, now Bulma was starting to worry a little. Just what exactly had happened while she was sleeping? She didn't feel anything, or she would have woke up? "Vegeta, what did you do?"

Vegeta sighed heavily. "Who said I did something?" Vegeta didn't want to tell her, but she was making this quite hard. Well, it was true that his behavior was a little strange, but still, she asked way too many questions. "You know what, just nevermind." Vegeta was slightly annoyed, as he got up from the bed, and walked away from Bulma.

Bulma was left sitting on the bed, very confused. She didn't know what happened, but Vegeta sure was in a very bad mood. Well, being angry was his only mood, but still. Bulma had the feeling he was hiding something from her. She would find out eventually. Unconsciously, Bulma rubbed the side of her neck, where Vegeta had left a small mark.

***********............................................_________________________............................................***********

.

Chi sighed heavily as she looked at the closed door in front of her. Things hadn't gone great so far, and she couldn't help but wonder if things would have been best if her and Kakarot had died. Maybe they should have remained on Earth, and let Vegeta blow them up with the rest of the planet. Her wish, and desire when she had decided to come with Princ Vegeta was to see her little girl again, but it was obvious she hated her. Chi wanted to talk to Bulma again, but she knew Bulma would need some time. Chi sighed again; life was horrible. She let herself fall on the bed.

There was other problems too. They would have to obey Frieza. Frieza, for crying out loud. The one responsible for all those problems. If that damn alien didn't exist in the first place, then Chi would have kept her perfect family life. Everything she loved, everything she had worked for was gone. Even her relationship with her mate. After they had left Vegeta-sei, things had never been quite the same again. Chi held a grudge against him in her heart, and she couldn't let go. Of course, she wouldn't tell him out loud; that would be disrespect, but she knew Kakarot could feel her inner anger. She couldn't even remember the last time they had been intimate, which was a big reason why they never had a child. Chi had wanted another baby to try to feel the void left by Bulma, but sometimes she couldn't stand being that close to Kakarot. He had never seemed to mind though.

Chi shook her head; she was so ridiculous. How could she hold such anger against Kakarot? All he had done, he had done it to save her, because she was his. She couldn't blame him for not loving Bulma the way she did. It was obvious that she was very different from other saiyans. Chi had never heard about someone that cared as much as she did. She never thought it was a bad thing, but it had affected her mating hadn't it?

Chi turned her head when she heard the door open. Kakarot had finally came back; Frieza had called him for a personal talk. Apparently, the lizard had believed that Chi was behind the lack of talking, since both her and Kakarot had remained silent the first time they had seen him. Chi knew Kakarot wouldn't betray anyone, but she was still somewhat worried. She decided to remain silent, and wait until he talk.

"He wanted to know about Bulma." said Kakarot after passing behind Chi.

Chi felt her heart stopped. What exactly did he want to know about her little girl. Her mental question was soon answered by Kakarot. "Apparently Bulma bleed, and he wanted to know if we knew why."

She bled? "Do you think it has something to do with the mark Prince Vegeta asked us about when we were on the ship?" Vegeta had seem pretty worried about this mark when he asked them. Maybe they would need to verify by themselves.

Kakarot shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, and I don't care." It was the truth; he couldn't care less what happened to Bulma. He was concerned about his mate, and his Prince. Nobody else.

Chi sighed heavily. Maybe she should go see Bulma, or at least Vegeta. Maybe she could ask him what exactly that mark was, and what was happening to her little girl. After all, it wasn't such a good idea to see Bulma right now; she wouldn't listen to her. Chi sighed again before getting up, and walking in direction of the door.

"Where are you going?" asked Kakarot in a slight cold tone.

Chi didn't even turn to look at him. "I'm going to find Prince Vegeta." He would be the only one that would actually listen to her. Plus, he was worried for Bulma too; maybe she could ease everybody's worry. Kakarot didn't try to stop her; he knew for a fact that when something concerned Bulma, they was no way to change her mind. It had been hard enough to make her leave Bulma behind.

His mate was a fool.

.

***********............................................_________________________............................................***********

.

Frieza was sitting in his usual chair, a grin on his face. His conversation with the oldest saiyan hadn't been very informative, he was willing to admit that, but he did learn something. Kakarot was loyal to Vegeta, it was more than obvious, but he seemed to dislike Bulma. Of course, Frieza had no idea why he felt such a way, but still, he could be something he would be able to use for himself. It was quite strange though that Bulma's own father couldn't stand her. Shouldn't he be happy his daughter was to be mated to the Prince?

Then again, he was a monkey therefor, he would be quite complicated to understand. Because of his little chat with Kakarot, Frieza had failed to find out what happened after Vegeta found Bulma bleeding. It quite enraged him somewhat, but he would try to find out. Hopefully, Nappa had been hanging around the room, and knew what happened. Nappa was the closest source he would get. Then again, he was a complete idiot too, and he might have been slacking off, and missed what happened.

Frieza was still going to take a chance though, which was why he had called Nappa in. Maybe he would be able to find some useful information. Kakarot hadn't gave him anything interesting about what exactly had happened to Bulma and why she had bleed.

Finally, after what had seemed like forever to Frieza, the door of his control room opened, revealing Nappa. He didn't look in such a good mood as he walked in direction of Frieza. What in the world had happened to him?

"Someone is cranky." said Frieza with a smirk before getting up.

Nappa didn't reply to his comment, he simply crossed his arm in front of his chest. "You called me?"

Frieza shook his head; they said he was a cold hearted person, yet it was always those monkeys who were in a bad mood. He couldn't recall seeing one of them smile, or be happy. They needed to learn how to lighten up a little. "I did, I wanted to know if you did your job."

If he did his job? If he did betray his Prince? He had. Yet, he had been a little too busy to be concentrating on spying on them. Eversince he had smelled Bulma's blood, he had felt a great inside frustration. She smelled divine. He knew that smell, it was quite hard to ignore it. Nappa had been able to smell her everywhere he went, and it bother him to no end. How could he ignore her call for a mate? This whole situation was driving him crazy. He had almost been ready to take Vegeta on, simply to get Bulma. It had been hard for him to control himself.

"Well?" asked Frieza getting slightly annoyed. "Did the hormones work?" This monkey was even dumber than he thought! How could he zone out like this like a complete fool, while, him, Frieza was waiting.

Nappa nodded. "Yes, her body started to produce the right smell."

"How do you know?" Frieza had to be sure everything was going smoothly. He had been quite lucky lately, and he intended on it remaining like this.

"I smelled it." said Nappa, anger more than obvious in his voice.

Frieza couldn't help but laugh. "Well, that explains your mood." Nappa didn't seem to appreciate his comment. "You can leave now." said Frieza before walking back to his chair.

Frieza felt extremely satisfy; once again, everything was going according to his plan. If Nappa was right about this whole mating season thing, that meant that shortly, Vegeta and Bulma would be mated, and he could start the second part of his plan. Of course, now that he had so many people joining his side, it would make it so much more easier. The only thing he had to watch out for was that damn Chi. She seemed to care about Bulma a little too much, and she could prove to be a problem. Maybe he should get rid of her now before she cause any damage. He would not let her run his plan.

After all, anyone who would get in his way, would pay with their life. Chi would be no different.

.

***********............................................_________________________............................................***********

.

Vegeta was walking down the hall of the ship. He felt slightly irritated about his previous conversation with Bulma. Why did she have to be such a bitch for? He had asked her questions about how she was feeling, wait, she immediately thought he did something. She was acting like he was always doing something wrong? She was the bitch who always screw up everything. Vegeta sighed heavily; he didn't even understand why he let get to him so much! Why did it bothered him that Bulma had such a low image of him? He didn't care what she thought about him!

Before Vegeta could realize there was someone in front of him, he ran into the person. Of course, he wasn't really affected by the collision, but the other being seemed to, as it fell on the ground. Vegeta looked down, and saw that Chi was the one who ran into him. He scoffed; what did she want? He had a feeling she would ask him to talk to Bulma. He was in no mood to be dealing with these two, and whatever problem she had with Bulma certainely wasn't his business. As far as he was concerned, Bulma could hate Chi as much as she wanted.

"My apologies, Prince Vegeta." said Chi as she stood up from the floor. She had been so absent minded, that she had not sensed her Prince's presence. This wasn't starting things in a very good way.

Vegeta simply scoffed, and crossed his arms in front of his chest. "What do you want?" It was obvious from the look on her face that she had something to ask him.

Chi sighed heavily; it was obvious that Vegeta was in a bad mood. Well, she came for a reason, and she was going to go through with it. "I had something to ask you, concerning my daughter." When Chi saw him rolled his eyes, she knew he was misunderstanding what she wanted. "No, my Prince, it's not like this. I simply wanted to know more about the mark you asked us about."

Vegeta was actually taken a little by surprise by her question. The mark? If she wanted to know, why didn't she go see Bulma? Oh right. Bulma hated her. "What do you want to know?" Maybe she could provide him with some useful information.

"Where is it, and what kind of mark is it exactly?"

Vegeta looked around; surely Frieza would be able to hear their conversation. There was his little followers all over the place, he would have to be careful. He bent down slightly, so he was closer to Chi's ear. "On her back. It says Vejiita's."

Chi felt her breathing becoming shallow. It was what she had been afraid of. She had obviously noticed that mark before, when Bulma was still a little girl, and when Kakarot told her the mark was bleeding, she had been scared. She knew exactly what it meant it what was going to happen.

Vegeta didn't fail to notice Chi's worried expression. That meant she knew what the mark represented, and obviously, there was something very wrong going on. "What? What is it?" he asked somewhat annoyed. If she knew something, she had to tell him.

Chi took a deep breath; this was going to be a very long talk. "My Prince, do you know anywhere private where we can talk?"

Vegeta didn't know why, but he was getting a very bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. Whatever Chi had to tell him couldn't be good news, yet, he was afraid that somehow he would have to suffer some consequences. He had that gut feeling once again. He felt like groaning.

Why did it always happen to him?

.

***********............................................_________________________............................................***********

Well, I guess that's going to be it for today. As you might have noticed, I didn't talk much today; I guess I don't feel in a big chatty mood ,since I'm extremely tired, and all my muscles are sored from the intense exercise I've been doing this week. 3 hours of freaking tennis every day plus 1 hour run 5 times a week. I have a big tennis competition coming up on top of that, I'm a little tired, lol. Anyways, I still hoped you like the chapter.

Love, & Review,

Maddie xoxo
